ICE Close: Canola Rebounds on Soyoil Strength, Light Farmer Selling

Canola futures rebounded sharply on Tuesday, buoyed by gains in Chicago soybean oil and light hedge pressure from Prairie growers. 

Soybean oil led the recovery, climbing in tandem with crude oil futures as U.S. refinery demand showed signs of strength and product inventories tightened. The firmer tone in energy markets helped support the broader oilseed complex, while soybeans also edged higher. 

Farmer sales were reported to be limited despite the rally, with producers cautious following recent price volatility. Weather across the Canadian Prairies remained mostly favorable, with adequate soil moisture reported in key growing areas, though some pockets may still benefit from additional rainfall in the coming week. 

November canola rose $16.80 to $709.70, and January gained $16.20 to $718.30.

Video: Spider Mite Control with Predatory Mites (Phytoseiulus persimilis)

The predatory mite Phytoseiulus persimilis is a highly effective biological control agent for spider mite infestations. As the first company to introduce this natural enemy, Koppert has been a pioneer in sustainable crop protection.

How does Phytoseiulus work?

•Adult mites feed on all life stages of spider mites.

•Nymphs consume spider mite eggs, larvae, and protonymphs.

•Although blind, Phytoseiulus detects spider mites by sensing webbing and leaf damage.

•It eliminates its prey by sucking out the contents, leaving only the empty skin behind.

Why use Phytoseiulus for spider mite control?

•High predation rate ensures rapid spider mite suppression.

•Fast life cycle leads to effective population growth.

•100% natural solution for sustainable pest control.
